      Difficult company to work for

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      If you work hard and understand the politics you will make it far at this company.

      Cons

      Anticipate a stressful working environment, and not much of a work-life balance. Bonus plans are typically difficult to understand and not completely understood by management.

      Merit Based Advancement

      Branch manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Gives you a very strong foundation for a business career, you are able to learn sales/service/logistics/cost management/P and L/fleet management At the Branch Manager Level and higher, free car with free gas and free insurance Hands off approach by management if you are growing your business You essentially get to run your own business. You hire your employees, you can fire employees if they aren't working out, you are paid a salary, but bonused off of the revenue/profit improvement of the branch. It's a good program if you're willing to get your hands dirty and learn the industry.

      Cons

      Branch employees have too many irons in the fire....cleaning cars, doing the rentals, answering all the phone calls, handling all the returns, cleaning the office, tons and tons of paperwork, not to mention the sales calls that are required on a monthly basis Not sure why experience can't be substituted for a Bachelor's Degree.....I've passed up some great resumes simply due to the fact that they weren't college grads. GM's are not present at the branch level....they only have your numbers to judge you by. This could work as an advantage or disadvantage, but there is a lot more to what an employee contributes than numbers on a page.

      Pros

      Great bonuses, You meet a lot of different people and can connect with many people. If promoted to manager you are entitled to use company car

      Cons

      No personal life with a position at Hertz. Hours are long andthe pay does not match the hours worked. Cleaning cars in the blistering cold and burning heat in professional attire is not fun. Only thing management cares about is if you sale, if you are not able to sale, you will not be there long
